Former House Speaker, failed presidential candidate, & Donald Trump vice president runner-up, Newt Gingrich, has said, in a tv interview, that:
● the fact that violent crime is down across the USA is not important
● what’s important is how people feel about it● it’s OK to cherry pick data to suit your argument
See for yourself:
Newt owes 114 small businesses a total of $4.6 million from his failed 2012 presidential campaign. He has no intention to pay. Apparently, the fact that he owes the money, is less important than his feeling that he doesn’t want to pay.
